Christmas Bucket List

I saw several ideas for Christmas bucket lists on Pinterest, and combined a few along with some ideas of my own. I am so excited about being super intentional about keeping our focus on family and Christ this Christmas season, and embracing a month that all too often is gone before you can blink! 

Here are a few of my compiled ideas. I chose 24 and plan to print them on card stock, wrap them, and have the kids open one a day for the first 24 days of Christmas. Using an advent calendar would work as well. You can either number them to best work with your schedule, or just be a random pick. You can download a PDF of the bucket list printable here.
